I'm thinking about switching to Wattpad. What do you think?
Disclaimer: I don't own Austin & Ally or any characters I didn't make up.
Cassidy, Ally, Kira, Trish, and Ally's mom-who was shockingly getting along with Mimi now- have planned a small bachelorette party for Mimi the weekend after the award show. Seeing as nobody wanted to have it in a bar, they settled on the beach house. The guys, minus Austin, rented a penthouse for Mike's bachelor party and dragged Austin to be with them. They invited Lester too, but he was away on a business trip.
The girls prepared a very strict agenda for their weekend here. The guys decided to let Mike choose, partly because they were lazy, and partly because they didn't know anything about Mike to plan something for him.
The girls all woke up at 9 when their synced up alarms played soft, relaxing music, had breakfast at 10, prepared for their day at 11, and were sunbathing by the ocean by 12. They had exactly 1 hour and 21 minutes to soak up the sun before clouds ruin their day and force them to go inside and watch a rom-com while eating tubs of ice cream that they know they shouldn't have to fit in their dresses.
Ryder and Dez stood at opposite ends of the hall containing their rooms and banged 2 pans each against each other while yelling "Fuck cancer!" to wake everyone up.
Austin, Elliot, and Mike came out of their bedrooms in rage and tore the pans from their hands. "'Fuck cancer?' Really?!" Elliot exclaimed while rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"Hey, don't mock. That's a very serious disease," Dez warned. Mike sighed, "You make me regret coming here already."
"Now that you're awake, we'd like to tell you that breakfast is served," Ryder proudly announced. Austin handed the pan in his hand to Elliot and turned to go to his room, "You guys have fun, I'm going back to sleep. I'm not feeling good."
Dez stopped from going into his room by standing in front of him, "Na-a-ah, not falling for this lie. Whether you like it or not, you're coming today."
Austin glared at his best friend before going into the bathroom. He heard the guys cheering and high-fiving for their achievement of getting him to go out with them. He looked at the clock and sighed, it was only 10am, he still had a long day ahead of him.
"I have to say, these avocado masks are really soothing," a green-faced Mimi admitted as she sat down on a chair in her robe. The rest who looked just like her agreed.
"Now that we have our facials done, it's time for the deep talk," Kira announced. Everyone sat in a circle on the floor and put a bowl of chips in the center.
"How does it feel to be a bride again?" Trish excitedly asked. Mimi sighed dreamingly, "It feels as if it's my first time. The butterflies, the happiness, the love. But I think I'm more nervous this time."
"Is it because of Austin and Mike?" Penny sympathetically asked.
Cassidy nodded, "I know you worry, Mom, but Elliot just texted me saying that Austin actually agreed to go out with them. That hopefully means improvement."
"I know my son. He's not gonna talk to him until they all go home. I know he thinks he's protecting me, but Mike would never hurt me like that again. I sometimes think of cancelling this whole thing because of him," Austin's mom confessed.
Ally who was stuck in her own thoughts about the subject spoke, "Don't. No matter how badly he hates Mike, Austin would never take your happiness away. He's told me this a lot before."
Apparently, Mike has booked an ice ring for them to skate in for the day. He also said that he had a surprise waiting for Austin there.
"This is awesome!" Elliot exclaimed when they entered the empty room, "An entire ice ring just for us."
For several hours, they skated around playing games on the ice until Dez noticed something.
"Are those bikes?" Dez pointed at the two matching bicycles at the end on the room. Austin skated there and got on one of them not planning to push it further onto the ice, "Who would bring a bike to an ice ring?"
Mike smiled widely, "I brought them here! Austin, it's the surprise I told you about!"
Austin looked down at the bike, "A bike on ice?"
"Remember when you were younger and we used to race these around the ice trying to beat each other and your mother would yell in fear that we get hurt, but we never did?!"
Austin furrowed his eyebrows, "You mean when I was 8 and did anything older people did?"
"Come on! For old times' sake!" Mike exclaimed.
"Mike, I don't think this is a good idea. The wheels aren't adjusted to be on ice, I'm not wearing any protection, plus I can't get hurt, I have a show next week," Austin protested.
"We never got hurt back then," Mike reasoned.
Austin rolled his eyes, he was not playing along, "I'm not-" he was interrupted when Mike nudged the bike onto the ice.
"No! Mike! I said no!" he yelled.
Austin cried for help as he couldn't control the wheels and the bike slid everywhere. "HELP!" he shouted as he tried to keep himself and the bike from falling.
Nobody could do anything since the bike was sliding and tilting in all directions. They could only watch in horror as he and the bike tilted over and Austin's ankle being crushed by the bike and the weight of his body.
"Shit that hurts!" Austin exclaimed as the guys tried to get his foot out of the wheel's spokes. "Austin, I'm so sorry!" Mike apologized as Ryder wrapped his ankle in a scarf.
"No you're not!" he snapped, "I said no and you still pushed me."
He got up with Dez's help and leaned on him as he walked out of the ice ring, "It's like you wanted me to get hurt."
To make it up to him, Mike decided to make dinner, promising to make it delicious and make his secret recipe juice. They even stopped by a supermarket for Mike to get some things he'll need.
Austin was stuck to the couch with his foot propped up with packs of ice and a bitter attitude. The guys ignored his mood and joked and laughed amongst themselves. And when they would joke with him, he would growl at them.
He got to his seat in the kitchen with Elliot's help when dinner was served. He had to admit the table did look pretty good, like his father put a lot of effort into it.
"I hope you like it," Mike smiled, "it's my special dish." He poured them all a glass of the juice he prepared. Austin found it tasty, so he gulped through his first glass.
After he poured his second glass and was drinking it, he started to feel a persistent itch in his arm that wouldn't go away when he scratched it. He furrowed his eyebrows, "What's this juice?"
"Oh, it's banana and strawberry," Mike informed proudly, but turned confused when he saw the guys take Austin's glass away from him and Austin doing a spit take.
"Strawberries?!" Austin yelled in rage, "I'm allergic to strawberries!"
He immediately knew the reason he was getting itchy. He felt something rising in his throat and ran to the nearest bathroom. He kneeled in front the toilet and let the contents of his stomach out.
He leaned on the wall trying to slow down his breathing when Mike spoke, "I swear I didn't know you were allergic."
"Of course you don't remember," Austin snapped already feeling his throat swelling, "I've been allergic all my life."
Ryder kneeled by his ankle, "Austin, it's swelling even more. You ran on it." Austin nodded feeling it throb with pain, "It hurts."
Elliot and Dez, after refusing Mike's help, helped him to his bed where his ankle was covered in an ice pack and he was given some pills to take.
Austin was left alone then when he started feeling dizzy. He sighed into the darkness. He tried to be friendly today, but two hours in and he knew that that wasn't happening. Everything Mike did seemed wrong or hurt him in a way. Even if it wasn't on purpose, he was still mad.
After following their schedule for only half a day, the girls decided it was more fun to do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted, they agreed that being spontaneous was part of the fun.
They all sat down in the living room waiting for their dinner to arrive. Trish sat up in her seat, "Uh-oh, trouble in paradise."
"What do you mean?" Cassidy asked. "Austin sprained his ankle and then had an allergic reaction," Trish read her texts from Dez to the rest to inform them what happened.
Ally quickly went to call her boyfriend when she heard everything. "Are you okay?" she asked once he picked up.
"Oh, I'm wonderful. I'm just stuck to my bed with itchy skin, an upset stomach, and my foot propped up with ice wondering how in the world I'm going to preform to fifty thousand people next week."
"So I guess you're not okay," she quietly said.
He sighed, "I'm sorry, Alls. I'm just really mad and in pain."
"I know you are, but he swears he didn't mean to."
He argued, "He could've at least tried to remember his son's life long allergy towards strawberries. One more mishap and I'm going home."
Ally giggled trying to lighten up the mood, "How come you've never told me you're allergic to strawberries?"
He chuckled trying to forget the anger in him, "It never came up. Now that you know I have to tell you I'm sorry if you have any fantasies of us having strawberries covered in chocolate on a date by the beach, I can't make it come true."
She playfully pouted, "There goes my goal in this relationship."
Ally was thankful to hear his laugh, knowing that she was able to distract him from his condition. They stayed on the phone all night joking and laughing, not caring about what the rest were doing without them.
Austin woke up and sighed happily. It the last day in this penthouse. Thankfully, he wasn't awakened by the banging of pans and chants, he woke up peacefully.
He expected to have a bad night sleeping with what happened the previous day, but after talking all night long with Ally about things they both found comforting, he felt better. She was able to make him forget about his ankle and allergic reaction.
The swelling in his throat had gone a bit down, his stomach felt better. He still had a runny nose and red spots all over his skin that he knew would take a few days to disappear.
Getting up, he hopped on his good foot to the bathroom they all shared. He frowned when he noticed the hotel shampoo has been used up. How much shampoo do they use in one shower? He looked around and found one of the others' shampoo and decided to use it.
After his shower, he put on his outfit for the day and hopped back to his room. Glancing at himself quickly in the mirror, he hopped to the bed before going back to the mirror in panic.
Ryder, Elliot, Dez, and Mike all jolted from their beds to the location of the scream they heard. The went to Austin's bedroom to find him brushing through his hair in despair.
"My hair is green! My hair is green!" he exclaimed as he stared at himself in the mirror.
"Hey, at least you look like Christmas with your green hair and the red spots on your skin," Ryder encouragingly said.
Austin glared at him and leaned on the wall after his leg got tired of holding him up.
"Oh, I must have packed the wrong shampoo…" they heard Mike mumble.
Austin groaned, "Of course it's you. Something else bad happens on this trip and it's your fault. Why am I not surprised?"
"It was an accident. I didn't know you'd use it," Mike defended.
Austin hopped closer to him, "You make me sprain my ankle by pushing me on a bike onto ice. You forget that I am allergic to strawberries. You pack the wrong shampoo and put it in the bathroom. Why do you even have green dye shampoo? That speaks negligent and irresponsible all over it. God help my mom with you."
Austin's father was about to say something but Austin continued, "Will we have to write you notes to remember what she's like? To remember that she can't stand cologne? To remember that she likes to sleep in a cold room? To remember that she takes long baths once a week to relax?
"I'm against this wedding, but I'm doing it for Mom. I have no idea what she still sees in you. You left her with two young kids and no money! She had to humiliate herself to get some money in that house! You didn't see the look on her face when she sobbed every night in her room and I'd have to go in and put her in bed," Austin's eyes glittered with tears at the memory.
"You've been trying to get close to me ever since I moved here. But know this, I will never let you in because you abandoned your family-"
Mike exclaimed, "I was forced to leave you! You wouldn't have lived a good life if I stayed! If you would just hear me explain why I left, I promise you, you'd understand."
Austin shook his head, "No, I won't. Because nothing justifies leaving your family. Nothing makes it okay. So get this straight, Cass and Mom might have let you come back, but you will never be my father again."
And that's when he walked, or more accurately hopped, away from that bachelor party.
Austin was a bit too harsh to his father, in my opinion.
Next chapter is the Moons' wedding!
